    Highly recommend. Food was delicious and authentic. We were greeted right away and only waited for about 10 minutes for 3 meals.

    The food was pretty good. What really made my visit was how the server handled a unruly person while I was there. The compassion and humbleness of the man working blew my mind & made me realize I should aim to always be on that level. That is definitely the type of people I want to support and get to have my food made by.

    We got two kinds of pho, chicken satay, egg rolls and a pork chop entree and loved every last bit of our order. Our kids love this place and not just because they like saying the name! It's our go-to feel good take out food to bring home on a cold night.

    Clean, great service, good food Tried Phnom Penh soup and Special Pho, and they are both good. Soup broth is cooked with genuine bone broth. Fish ball and quail egg in Phnom Penh soup is superb. Pho was served quickly in big bowl. Vietnamese coffee was well made with perfect ratio between condensed milk and coffee. Only downside is that you have to park on the street, which is small and busy all the time.

    I ordered fried rice, pho #17 brisket & meatball, and a Bahn mai with steamed pork. It was all delicious and affordable. I would definitely eat here again.

    First time ordering takeout this weekend and wow! We were so impressed with everything. We got potstickers (great flavor and piping hot!!), chicken pho (fantastic broth and white meat chicken with lots of veggies!) , mixed fried rice (fiancé had that and said it was super good and had teriyaki flavors) and a grilled pork bahn Mi (the baguette was nice and chewy like we love and the flavors were soooo good and fresh). We will absolutely be ordering from here again. So glad we found a pho place close to us that’s great! Prices were so reasonable as well.

    WOW just WOW! Talk about flavor! This place was amazing. The location was clean and well decorated. The staff was quick and friendly. The food was just out of this world. The price was very reasonable. I ordered the Vietnamese sandwich with grilled chicken and the flank and roundeye pho(reg) with tip it was under $25. Amazing experience all around.

    First time coming as a take out. Bubble tea is amazing so is the spring roll and shrimp egg roll. I expected more from the pho but it was a little too sweet to my liking.

    Good joint for filling, affordable Vietnamese dishes. I tried the pho which was hearty and fine. However, it could have been a bit more flavorful. Well worth it though if you’re in the area.

    Great place and greater staff! The pho is amazing and probably one of the best in the entire Tacoma area :)

  • 5/5 shonta r. 2 years ago on Google
    This is one of my favorite places to go...I think it's the fresh tasting ingredients. It's very reasonably priced, the environments decent. Give it a try it wonderful. You might catch me there.

    I go here all the time, never dissapoints. Delicious and generous portions, ready quick. 😋 So good!

  • 5/5 Nina B. 2 years ago on Google
    The food at this restaurant is amazing. The facility is clean, and I love the beautiful art on the walls. The staff are fantastic and friendly. Their menu has many different options, so they are able to accommodate most all allergies and flavor palettes. I highly recommend trying Pho King. You will not be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Amanda D. 1 year ago on Google
    First time here and definitely coming back. We ordered the spring rolls, steak and flank pho, and boba teas. The pho was very flavorful and hardy. The spring rolls were great as well and the boba was fresh! What more do you need??

  • 5/5 Cashea S. 8 months ago on Google
    A quiet environment with amazing food. The egg rolls were cooked amazingly and tasted perfect. They may quite possibly be the best I've ever had for the type of egg roll. The Vietnamese Bahn Mi was delicious. It had been stuffed full of all the veggies and meat with a yummy sauce. The pho itself has a delicious broth and the small was a very filling bowl. The food was quick and prompt and the service was excellent. Came to fill our drinks and took out order in a prompt fashion. I'd come back!

    Great service. Excellent quality of pho and other dishes. The spring rolls were freshly made. The Sườn Nướng was delicious; pork was nicely grilled and still juicy, the other meats and veggies were fresh as well. The pho we got was great. Broth was great and there was just the right amount of meats in it. Overall, a really great place to satisfy your pho cravings. You can park on the street but there is more parking just right around the block as well. Employees were nice and very patient and super helpful.

    My sister and I went in for lunch today and as usual, Pho King didn't disappoint. I had the bo kho with bread and my sister had the grilled pork banh mi. Both were absolutely delicious. The sandwich was perfection.

  • 4/5 Cheng L. 8 months ago on Google
    I ordered the Pho King special pho. I always do an "add nothing test" to the broth upon drop off. Flavor was just not there and broth little oily. Think low sodium potatoe chips or diet coke vs coke. The good part is they provide 2 different Sriacha sauces, typical veggie condiments for pho, fish sauce and soy sauce. After a few shakes of soy sauce and fish sauce, the flavor was acceptable. Compared to some of the best pho in Los Angeles CA, San Jose CA, St. Paul MN, where Id give 10/10, this pho is probably at a 6. Keep in mind, my own mother's pho which she rarely made would be a 4- as in "mom...pho? Oh boy.." other dishes like spring rolls (house sauce too watered down) had hoison sauce avail for u to make yiur own sauce (i recc 90% hoison plus 10% sriacha-swirl together). Spring rolls rock and so do the boba teas. If the chef can conjure up a more flavorful and less oily broth, Id revisit. Otherwise, many other places to try upon my return to this area.

    We travel all over the world and this was the best Pho I have ever had..! The spring rolls were also delicious.. as was the Vietnamese iced coffee..!

    If you're looking for great pho in Tacoma, then head up to Pho King on MLK Way in Hilltop. You might have to be patient looking for street parking due to all the new construction in the area, but the pho is totally worth it. We ordered the brisket pho and the broth was so good. Definitely recommend Pho King for your pho fix!
